MD setup fails in 10.04

[fibres]

Well I installed using murdocks script.

I then ran Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh

Diskless setup still failed when I boot the MD.

Ill try your tip kyfalcon.

Ok

First try failed.

Second time round I noticed on the apt-get update it came up with a medibuntu gpg error and a missing packages.gz. So I copied these from the Core and rerun apt-get update and it finished

I didnt install the nvidia-glx-260.

I ran upgrade and it told me something about Flash having unmet dependencies. I ran apt-get install -f and this fixed that.

I ran apt-get upgrade and told me there was nothing.

I booted the MD and it came up with the kubuntu logo for ages.
When I ssh'ed to the MD i could see it was installing nvidia-glx-260 automatically and was installing kernel-headers. After a long time the md rebooted and came up with the av wizard. I will run that and the install over night and post the outcome in morning.

here are the manual steps I've made to this point:

Code Select Expand


cp /usr/pluto/deb-cache/Packages.gz /usr/pluto/diskless/58/usr/pluto/deb-cache/
chroot /usr/pluto/diskless/58/
wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | apt-key add -
apt-get -f install
adduser public #for pluto-mythtv package postinst script
apt-get -y upgrade

Interesting.

I have done similar to that. Everything started ok. It installed the nvidia-glx-260 rebooted gave avwizard.
Generated the orbiters.
Now its just coming up with Orbiter failed to initialize OpenGL

check your xorg.conf. i betcha it is not using nvidia device.

i had to create mine from my 810 setup for this md

Ok

Thanks to TKMEDIA on mirc.

I ssh'd onto the md and ran nvidia-xconfig

Rebooted and I now see Sarah!!

Now ill set most things. Let it do the downloads and installs in the setup wizard overnight as I have a slow 3mb ADSL here and see where we are in morning.

Hopefully it will all be working. I have got this far before but it had not installed the nvidia glx drivers and I had no VDPAU so nothing played as the md is an Atom based Zotax Zbox ID11 HD

Ok. Rebooted and all seems to be working.

I can play media and watch TV!!
